ClutchFans Game Thread: Lakers @ Rockets 11/14/2007

he can't take it to the hoop and ball hogs plus he is inconsistent

 

Of course the coach isn't going to put francis in, or maybe he should of if he was a smart coach. He obviously doesn't know that reefer sucks horsesh(t when it comes to shooting 3s and driving in shooting floaters, but he'll eventually learn and will PUT francis in soon when it matters. BOOK IT.

For the record, WTH is reefer good at anyways? All i see is moving the ball up and then passing it out.

 

someone needs to find the email phone number something to contact the coach or players

 

the crowd should be the coach!!!!!!!!

 

Got to blame JVG who commentating ESPN. #@$!* jinx ROX.

 

This is what Fran said in his blog:

"The good news for T-Mac -- it's only a strain.
Tracy McGrady was sat in front of his locker, wearing gray slacks, an undershirt and had his right arm in a sling.

"It looks like my 2007-2008 season is over," he said to the throng of reporters.

After everyone gasped, he smiled.

"I'm just bull(bleeping) you," he said.

The preliminary results of the MRI performed at Memorial Hermann Hospital showed a strain. Dr. Tom Clanton called it a "day-to-day" injury. But McGrady said he was told that he could be out for a week.

"I've got a strained elbow and stretched nerve, whatever that means," McGrady said. "Some inflammation around the elbow. We'll see how I feel tomorrow and the next day.

"It's definitely good news because I actually thought it could be a lot worse than what it was and I could be out a lot longer. Considering that they say I could possibly miss a week or less than that, it's good information for me."

 

<br>
have you ever seen a francis game???????
<br>
he's known as one of the best crossover drivers ever
<br>
hell screw t-mac's drive (now)
<br>
steve's is on par with iverson's

 

Last time we won because LA missed too many FTs, this game is kind of payback.

We got favorable calls against bobcats, then screwed up by refs against Memphis. All balanced out.

 

It is not a PERSONELL PROBLEM.

ALL OUR PLAYERS STRUGGLED SHOOTING THE BALL.

WHY NOT TRADE AWAY THE ENTIRE TEAM?

THE LAW OF AVERAGES WILL KICK IN, WE WILL GET BETTER AT SHOOTING THE BALL.

OUR OFFENSE WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE PERFECT UNTIL AFTER THE ALL-STAR BREAK ANYWAY. THERE HAS NOT BEEN CONSISTENT CUTTING, ETC.

BE POSITIVE, WE WILL OWN THEM NEXT TIME!

Uncaps

 

punk*** is scared of the schdule coming this whole week all the games are hard and doesn't want to play too much

 

i mean't mike james

 

Damn, do you really believe that? What the hell is wrong with you? Talking like this is the first time Tmac has ever faced a hard schedule.

 

It is the Rockets. I have come to learn that this team can not stand to have good things happen to them. It seems like it always happens to the team they play well and just when you think they can become a dominate team, something cr@ppy happens.

The guard play will continue to play a huge role on the success of this team. I am waiting till December 15th and see what Morey can do to address the situation.

I don't believe SF3 will get a chance to play and I will leave up to RA to decide what is best for the team but I have not seen the Sacramento style of offense being played by the Rockets, it has become the same old JVG offense scheme.

 

<br>
lol sorry
<br>
but its unfortunate because james actually can make those but isn't in the past few games
<br>
unlike rafer who just cant make a layup to save his life
<br>
THE TRUTH

 

Good. Thanks!

 

...what was BS?

 

This is pathetic..... really pathetic to watch.

If Francis doesn't play after this game I will forever hate Adelman. Is he the dumbest coach in the NBA? He has a 3-time all star player rotting on the bench in favor of Rafer, James, Head? I don't get it? Does he like losing? When will he wake up to reality? I hope Francis pulls a Spreewell on Adelman!!

Rafer Alston should not be starting PERIOD. Trade him for a bag of $*** !! Get rid of him!! Place him on the IR until his contract is finished!! Waive him!! NBDL him for life!! I don't care... just get him off the Rockets roster. You guys say hes a "pass-first" PG. HOW SO? He shoots 5-13, 2-9, 1-7. It's not like hes shooting less than 4-5 FG's a game. Please Morey save us and get rid of Rafer, he belongs in Rucker Park dribbling/doing crossovers against Streetballers.

We better see Francis in this week now that TMAC it out. Speaking of TMAC, look at you morons who thought Kobe < Tmac + Fillers. If we had Kobe on our team instead of the Lakers we would've won easily.

 

who should we trade......... anyone think its time

 

do you know how long it takes to fully grasp a complex motion offense? phil jackson said it takes about two years for players to get comfortable in his triangle offense. i'm guessing that's about how long it'll take to learn adelman's offense b/c it has some triangle and a lot of other stuff. this team is taking its babysteps right now.

 

but when was the last time when the rockets played with yao and mcgrady in a schdule like this
